Rangers' Neil expects Celtic 'reaction' in league match

[SNS] Dan Neil has warned Rangers to expect "a reaction" from Celtic when the two sides meet again this coming weekend. Midfielder Neil, 24, scored twice as the Ibrox side beat Celtic 3-0 in Sunday's Premier Sports Cup quarter-final at Ibrox. The Glasgow rivals' first Scottish Premiership meeting of the season takes place at Celtic Park on Sunday (12:00 BST). "They're a good team and there's going to be a reaction," Neil said. "And it's at their place and although we've won on Sunday, by no means have we over-celebrated. We know that it's job done this week but we've got a massive game in the league. "We got through in the League Cup, which is brilliant and we are going to Hampden with a chance of a final. "But we're under no illusion about the league and the points at the minute and full focus is on next week before the international break." Captain for the day Neil praised his team-mates for their approach in the first Old Firm derby of the season. "I thought all the lads carried out the game plan to an absolute tee, in possession and out of possession," Neil explained. "I thought we were really aggressive, really intense but also mixed it up as well, we were really compact and narrow in a block and I thought we judged when to jump out of that block and go man-for-man very well. "You've seen that probably in the last few games, which is why the clean sheets are starting to come. But even when things weren't going great, I was still enjoying it. "I knew that there was going to be a turn in form from everybody because I see the quality in the changing room and maybe we just needed that little bit of getting to know each other's games and getting to know each other as people as well. "People underestimate how big that is in a changing room and you've seen a more together team over the last few weeks."
